Using the Elliminate system, we share theJedit and Hyperterm applications with the remote users. The remote user therefore interacts with therobots as if he or she were sitting in the lab. Students type commands, the controller responds, displaysinformation and in some cases moves the robot in response to commands.Figure 3 below shows the computer monitor as seen by the remote user. The remote user directlycontrols the jEdit and HyperTerminal windows. ( The “.”s in the HyperTerminal window are promptsfrom the robot controller inviting the user to type commands.)

The registers are located in blocks referred to as macrocells.Each macrocell contains a register, routing resources, a clock multiplexer, and initialization control.Figure 2 shows the macrocell configured in the synchronous mode. The register can be configured as aD-type or T-type flip-flop. The register can also emulate J-K and S-R flip-flop behavior [7]. Figure 1. ispM4A5 64/32 Block Diagram [7]3.

This is likelydue to the fact that few students earn all A’s and A+’s in previous coursework, so very few havea GPA higher than 4.0. This prediction, therefore, fails to predict that students will score an A+in a future course. 100% 95% 90% Actual Performance (in CE300) 85% 80% 75

With this design the group was able to manipulate theoutput to the proper 0V to 2.5V required by the microcontroller. In order to condition the outputsignal from the Figaro TGS6810 [11] gas sensor, an AD620 operational amplifier was used (seeFigure 2). This was necessary because each Figaro sensor has an offset that needs to be adjustedby means of a differential voltage. The AD620 is capable of amplifying the output of the gassensor to range from 0V to 2.5 Volts. Not all components in the system though are intended to aid in amplifying a signal.
